Hi, I'm Ellie,

TEDx Speaker, Coach & Co-founder of Home of Connection reshaping how people connect, network and lead.

Having developed my career within the luxury industry over the past decade, building lasting relationships and facilitating connection has been the foundation of everything I do.

As a coach and having studied Women’s Leadership, I now focus on how we can use the power of social intelligence to accelerate career development and create more connected workplace cultures.

This is why I spend my time delivering talks, consulting businesses and coaching leaders to reshape how we connect with our clients, teams and each other.

I also regularly host fireside chats and wellbeing experiences to bring leaders and entrepreneurs together to spark curiosity, collaboration and deeper conversation.
